Each group winner will play off in a finals match.

Finals winners will be presented with either the Premiers or Champions Cup with Medallions for all finals participants.

We would encourage teams to register as soon as possible and avoid disappointment. As soon as an age group category is full, registrations for that category will be immediately closed and a waitlist option offered.
